Home Remedy Ideas
Kidney cleansing helps to dissolve kidney
stones and to flush out toxic wastes from the kidney. There are
several kidney cleansing home remedies. They typically involve the use
of juice, supplements and herbs. One important method is kidney
cleansing fast. Fasting provides an opportunity for your organs to
rest. When you perform a kidney cleansing fast, your kidneys gets a
break from their daily routine. During this period, your kidneys
perform some damage control exercises such as tissue repair. During
the fast, herbal teas can be used to hasten the flushing out of toxic
wastes.
You will need to make some preparations before undergoing a kidney
cleansing fast. You should reduce your food intake for a few days
prior to the day of fasting. This will prepare your stomach for
fasting.
On the fasting day, drink lots of liquid. Fresh fruit juices diluted
in filtered water are the best choice. Never drink canned fruit
juices. Organic apple juice is an ideal choice. Herbal combinations
can also be used during kidney cleansing fast. These combinations
should be taken along with fresh fruit juices.
A herbal combination made out of celery and parsley leaves helps in
the rejuvenation of kidneys during a fast. To prepare the combination,
take one-and-half quarts of distilled water. Add one cup of parsley
leaves and one cup of celery leaves. Boil for 15 minutes and simmer
for 10 minutes. Drink the liquid four or five times.
For the next one week, the juice and herbal combination should be
taken along with normal diet. It is better to avoid greasy and
non-vegetarian food for a week. Breakfast can include fresh fruit and
muesli. For lunch, salads and raw or cooked vegetables along with
fruit juices are ideal. The lunch menu can be followed for dinner.

watermelon cleanse. You will need big watermelons for this method. Cut
them into pieces. Then sit in a bathtub filled with water. Start
eating the watermelon. While eating, pass out urine into the water.

Water cure, also known as water cure recipe, is another known kidney
cleansing home remedy method. In a water cure, you need to drink
plenty of water to flush out waste materials. Daily, you need to drink
water equal to half of your body weight. Water is calculated in
ounces. For example, if your body weight is 200 lb, then you need to

water daily. A quarter spoon of salt should be added to each glass of
water. Caffeinated or alcoholic drinks should be avoided.
